Who

People whose role may see the accounting reports.

The screen lists every report with one line saying what it is, in groups: Ledger and journal, Ageing, Balance sheet, Profit and loss, Tax, Banking, Custom and Other.

Accounting reports: every report in its group

Press Open report on the report you want.

Choose the Period and the Basis: Accrual or Cash. The company is the one chosen in the top bar; the report says which.

Read the report. Above the table it says how many posted lines it covers and in which currency the figures are shown. Lines entered in another currency were converted at the rate held on the line.

Export downloads it; PDF page sets the page upright or sideways. All reports takes you back to the list.
